puggy_puggy Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Just wondering if anyone could reccomend a doggy chiropractor or a doggy massuse or acupuncture in Victoria preferably not to far away from Box Hill. An ex rescue that I fostered has been limping and his parents have had him on the anti inflamitory injections but are wanting to try something else as well. This puggy came out of a puppy farm situation and was used for nothing but stud duties for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavNrott Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I would want to know what's causing the limp before I had anything but massage done. Is it a bone problem, muscle problem, joint problem? What does the vet say is the cause of the problem? I know a really good myotherapist who may be able to help. She was coming to my home to massage my dog. Box Hill would be within her area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like a doggy chropractor to have a look at his back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimjm Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I to would strongly advise you have a diagnosis before any type of manipulation is preformed. Try a veterinary chiropractor if you want to go down the chiro road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
